This review is from: Rosewill SATA 1.5 / 3.0 / 6.0 Gb/s Internal 2.5" & 3.5" HDD to USB 3.0 External Adapter w/ both 2.5" and 3.5" Black Silicon Protection Case for HDD
Pros:
- Works as advertised.
- Good speeds.
- Has a power switch on it so you can turn the drive off without unplugging it if you want.
Cons:
- The rubber band like enclosure doesn't cover the bottom of the drive which is the most susceptible to damage. However, having said that my g/f did knock a 750 GB Seagate off the table (maybe 3 feet on to carpet) on to the floor at least 2x in this thing and it's still functional (not sure who gets credit there).
- As other people have said, connections are a bit loose, and that is due mostly to the very stiff cable it comes with.
- Never goes on sale. I've been waiting for ages to get another one ;/
Overall Review:
I got it for $15 because of some coupon code but as stated above, this has never been on sale to my knowledge. I think $10-$15 is fair but $20 seems high for this without a real enclosure.
